🌶❤️ FRESH HATCH RED CHILE IS HERE! ❤️🌶

The Fruit Basket ABQ has just received a fresh delivery of Hatch Red Chile straight from the fields! 🙌 Whether you’re making your own ristras or craving that smoky flavor of roasted red, we’ve got you covered.

🔥 Available in 40 lb sacks:
👉 Medium
👉 Hot
👉 Extra-Hot
👉 ###-Hot

✅ Free roasting on all sacks of Green and Red Chile!

⏳ Fresh Red is here for a limited time only — we receive deliveries twice a week, but they go FAST. Call ahead to make sure we have your sack in stock.

⚠️ Friendly reminder: Roasted Red Chile can be trickier to peel than Green due to its thinner skin — but trust us, the flavor is worth it. 😉
